Prior to this, in 2018, emissions were approximately 1.44 billion kg CO2e, and in 2017, approximately 1.35 billion kg CO2e.

Stena Line has set an absolute reduction target of 30% for CO2 emissions from vessels by 2030, with a baseline year of 2022. They are reported to be on track for this two-year target. While the provided data does not detail specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 breakdowns for Stena Line itself for the most recent years, Stena Line's parent company, Stena AB (publ), reports on emissions. However, direct emissions data from Stena AB (publ) for Stena Line's total emissions beyond 2019 is not explicitly presented here. It's important to note that Stena Line is a current subsidiary and some of its performance data may be cascaded from its parent organisation, Stena Line Sweden AB. Additionally, Stena AB (publ) is a participant in the CDP initiative. Other entities within the broader Stena Group have their own reduction targets. For example, Stena Property aims for a 55% intensity reduction in Scope 1 emissions by 2030 and a 55% intensity reduction in Scope 2 emissions by 2030. Stena Drilling has an absolute reduction target of 40% for Scope 2 emissions by 2030. These targets, however, relate to specific business areas within the Stena Group and not necessarily Stena Line's overall emissions.
